The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued warnings to skit makers and the entire members of the public on the unlawful usage of its operational accoutrements for skit-making.
In a statement issued on the commission’s official social media page (Facebook), it condemns in totality the attempt to use its name or its pseudo characters for fun.
“An old video, code-named: “EFCC and Army Wahala” is regaining traction across social media. This, once again, compels the EFCC to reiterate its warning to skit makers and other social workers to desist from using the operational accoutrements of the Commission illegally and irresponsibly.
“EFCC and Army Wahala” is a caricature of the operational etiquette of the EFCC. The shameful characterization of supposed operatives of the Commission in the video unleashing terror on “suspects”, is not only embarrassing but indicative of deliberate attempts to cast shadows on the image of the EFCC.
“Operatives of the EFCC are not bullies, they are trained as refined modern law enforcement officers rich in decency, civility and respect for members of the public, including suspects of economic and financial crimes.
“Skit makers are warned again to desist from unauthorized use of the accoutrements of the Commission.” It added.
